Happy to say that I was not disappointed in Ms. Burke's newest book in the Ellie Hatcher series. It has really good writing and story development and Ellie seems to be maturing. Premise was not too over the top and hard to believe. I'm looking forward to her next effort. Recommended.

I have a new author to read. From the first paragraph, I was hooked on this book. Alafair is every bit as good an author as her dad, James Lee Burke. The author manages to keep the reader guessing and provides surprises rather than the obvious. The character, Ellie Hatcher, gains the reader's interest immediately and, through the author's expertise, the reader relates and cheers her on throughout the book. I can't wait to read more by Alafair Burke
